“…(Table 1). Mycelium compared to fruit bodies of wild-grown mushrooms is also one order of magnitude poorer in K (Vinichuk et al 2011). The values of concentrations in Tables 1 and 12 imply that there are similarities in K contents of fruit bodies of macromycetes, while fluctuations seem be more due to the stage of maturity of the carpophore and the site rather than to the species of the fungus (Tables 1 and 12).…”

“…Emphasis is frequently given on long-lived 137 Cs that polluted the surface of the Earth due to global radioactive fallout after testing of nuclear weapons and from nuclear power plant accidents, but some others as well as naturally occurring radionuclides are also intensively studied in mushrooms (Horyna and Řanda 1988; Bakken and Olsen 1990; Tsvetnova and Shcheglov 1994; Dahlberg et al 1997; Kirchner and Daillant 1998; Rühm et al 1997; Skwarzec and Jakusik 2003; Strandberg 2004; Baeza et al 2004a, b; Kostiainen 2007; Vaartamaa et al 2009; Mietelski et al 2002, 2010; Taira et al 2011; Vinichuk et al 2011; Castro et al 2012; and many others).…”

“…Typical contents of K and Rb in mushrooms are around 25,000 to 50,000 and ~100 to 300 mg kg −1 dm, respectively (Table 12). And fruit bodies are at least one order of magnitude richer in K and Rb and also in Cs compared to fungal mycelium (Vinichuk et al 2011). The radionuclides 40 K and 87 Rb are common constituents of mushrooms (Baeza et al 2004a, b, 2005; Mietelski et al 2010; and many others).…”

This article reviews and updates data on macro and trace elements and radionuclides in edible wild-grown and cultivated mushrooms. A huge biodiversity of mushrooms and spread of certain species over different continents makes the study on their multi-element constituents highly challenging. A few edible mushrooms are widely cultivated and efforts are on to employ them (largely Agaricus spp., Pleurotus spp., and Lentinula edodes) in the production of selenium-enriched food (mushrooms) or nutraceuticals (by using mycelia) and less on species used by traditional medicine, e.g., Ganoderma lucidum. There are also attempts to enrich mushrooms with other elements than Se and a good example is enrichment with lithium. Since minerals of nutritional value are common constituents of mushrooms collected from natural habitats, the problem is however their co-occurrence with some hazardous elements including Cd, Pb, Hg, Ag, As, and radionuclides. Discussed is also the problem of erroneous data on mineral compounds determined in mushrooms.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s00253-012-4552-8) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Numerous species of wild-grown mushrooms are among the most vulnerable organisms for contamination with radiocesium released from a radioactive fallout. A comparison was made on radiocesium as well as the natural gamma ray-emitting radionuclide (40K) activity concentrations in the fruiting bodies of several valued edible Boletus mushrooms collected from the region of Europe and Yunnan Province in China. Data available for the first time for Boletus edulis collected in Yunnan, China, showed a very weak contamination with 137Cs. Radiocesium concentration activity of B. edulis samples that were collected between 2011 and 2014 in Yunnan ranged from 5.2 ± 1.7 to 10 ± 1 Bq kg−1 dry matter for caps and from 4.7 ± 1.3 to 5.5 ± 1.0 Bq kg−1 dry matter for stipes. The mushrooms Boletus badius, B. edulis, Boletus impolitus, Boletus luridus, Boletus pinophilus, and Boletus reticulatus collected from the European locations between 1995 and 2010 showed two to four orders of magnitude greater radioactivity from 137Cs compared to B. edulis from Yunnan. The nuclide 40K in B. badius was equally distributed between the caps and stipes, while for B. edulis, B. impolitus, B. luridus, B. pinophilus, and B. reticulatus, the caps were richer, and for each mushroom, activity concentration seemed to be more or less species-specific.

Aim: To mitigate the side effects of medical treatment by Prussian blue (PB), a well-known adsorbent for radioactive cesium (Cs), PB-deposited magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), were prepared and analyzed on the adsorbent capacity for Cs removal. Materials & methods: The PB-deposited MNPs were prepared by photo-deposition method and investigated for their Cs adsorption properties in vitro and in vivo. The distribution of the adsorbents was also evaluated in C57BL/6 mice. Results: PB-deposited MNPs provided an improved adsorbent capacity for Cs removal and reduced toxicity to blood cells compared with those of bulk PB. Conclusion: PB-deposited MNPs could be considered as an alternative of PB-based medicine to reduce the possible hazards caused by high dose of PB intake.
